Not too pretty at the time, but I knew immediately that he was mine. I immediatel had the surgery done to pin his leg, and now he doesn't even have a slight limp. (It's said that there's no such thing as a "free" cat, and that's SO true!)<BR/><BR/>Grace, my second rescued cat, was adopted from an amazing animal shelter in the Piedmont of North Carolina. She is asthmatic and takes medication for that every day. <BR/><BR/>Both of them are blessings to us, and we love them dearly. We've had them for five years and wouldn't trade them for anything.<BR/><BR/>SkylarkAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3502872387219876077.post-7946306908458942262008-12-13T06:24:00.000-08:002008-12-13T06:24:00.000-08:00What a beautiful kitty!

It kills me that these cats are overlooked because they're not what most people consider beautiful in a cat. Missy grew into a BEAUTIFUL girl...I neve thought much about it, loving her anyway, until I was talking to a friend in the driveway and Missy got up into the cat tree by the window. He said "Wow...look how beautiful that one is!" When I adopt a cat, I don't go with any 'ideas' on what I want. Like when I adopted Mouse, he came out of no where at the shelter and sat on my shoulder as if it say "MOM! Thank goodness you're finally here." I looked at the other kittens, but never could get Mouse out of my mind. I went back into his room with all the other cats and again, out of nowhere, he comes to sit on my shoulder. I can't tell you how much he loves me, he has to be near me constantly and demands a hug when I get home, and when I get up. If you want a cat, go to a shelter and get a "mutt". Spend time with them, and let someone pick you out. You won't be sorry. (um, gotta go, Mouse is in my lap and wants some lovin!)Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00792777868409354379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3502872387219876077.post-20887612080102017812008-12-12T10:01:00.000-08:002008-12-12T10:01:00.000-08:00Sondra here (Nick's staff manager), and I can tell...Sondra here (Nick's staff manager), and I can tell you that he is truly a catman of many talents. His latest accomplishment is going into the bathroom in the middle of the night and closing the door. Of course, he has not learned to open said door to come out, so he has a very annoying habit of scratching on the door until someone wakes up to answer his bidding.<BR/><BR/>But we love him anyway!<BR/><BR/>SkylarkAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3502872387219876077.post-1537862799702078222008-12-12T06:53:00.000-08:002008-12-12T06:53:00.000-08:00I see Nick loves Amazon.com too :)Hiya there Nick!...I see Nick loves Amazon.com too :)<BR/><BR/>Hiya there Nick! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
